Handmade letter is always touching.
is there an Y in Japanese letters?
Yamaha is also Japanese company. In addition, there are “Yakult.”, “Yakyu(baseball)” and “Yakan.(kettle)”
how could I forget YAMAHA!

Exceptionally cool!
Very nice! I love the sunny vibe of yellows always. Here is our photo contribution this week: Y for Yearning – http://gatheringbooks.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/photo-challenge-photo-journal-y-is-for-yearning/
hi Myra,
I’m very touched by some lines of MARKUS ZUSAK:
“I’ve wandered through the real world,
and written myself through the darkness of the streets inside me.
…Sometimes I just survive.
But sometimes I stand on the rooftop of my existence,
arms stretched out, begging for more.
That’s when the stories show up in me…”
― Markus Zusak, Getting the Girl
P.S.:
after A-Z Tuesday’s photo challenge coming to an end
I’ll continue with a Tuesday’s A-Z “reflections” challenge -
something like this:
http://flickrcomments.wordpress.com/2012/05/21/a-words-challenge/
I forgot about Yellow. Good choice. Here’s mine. A snowy yard:
http://motherwifestudentworker.wordpress.com/2012/06/18/a-z-archive-y-challenge-yard/
hi Claudia,
your yard in December 2009:
on a rare snow day in Houston
- snow in Houston – yippieh!
At the moment I cannot think of many except yellos
OOps should read Yellow
yell
That is nice collage of the warm yellow and Caillat song. Here is my contribution: http://bellechance.wordpress.com/2012/06/18/y-is-for-yorick/
YORICK =
“he hath borne me on his back a thousand times”:
P.S.:
could need someone like him …
http://justfletcher.wordpress.com/
hi melouisef,
yellow painted birds – wow!
in Germany the postmen are dressed in yellow …
Nice, vibrant yellow in your photo!
Here is a young fawn, soon to be a yearling:
http://creativityaroused.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/y-challenge-young-yearling/
thanks for your little story!
“…It didn’t notice me until I was a few yards away, and then instinctively froze and sat motionless as I approached. When I was less than 10 feet away, Bambi decided I was too close for comfort, got up, and wobbled slowly away…”

YORK – a charming city, indeed – and charming ruins (img 034) too!
Yorkshire Terrier:

and sometimes even with green eyes!
What does the box in the photo above hold? Curious. For Y I went with: http://canoecommunications.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/yikes-a-sea-monster/
YIKES = Loch Ness ancestor:
“…I walked in and looked up.
That was a surprise…”:
Frizz: Did he ask you:
“WHAT YOU SAY???”
(Ray Charles: “Hit the road, Yikes”)
hi canoe-communications, because you asked:
What does the MERCEDES box in the photo above hold?
frizz-reply:
the man, who adopted me, had cigarettes in there;
now inside the box is what he left for me after he was gone:
nothing…
but you kept it
as a symbol that I do not need to own more than the air in a box – and the mood of liberty, freedom, self confidence – I adore your ritual to paddle with your canoe daily around Manhattan like a seagull or dolphin …

Do I love yellow? Not hard to figure this one out as noted by my gravatar.
So here’s mine. Daffodils in the morning sun, a slight spider web, and light dew. http://simplysage.org/2012/03/25/centerpeace-daffodils/
Peace,
Alexandria
And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers
that are here today
… he will certainly care for you.
I love yellow

Suasana sore di Hutan Kota, Banda Aceh
: I like the yellow female dresses, separated color technique …
Same yellow. New post. Visual poetry.
http://simplysage.org/2012/06/19/more-and-less-about-me/
good luck, Alexandria,
to make a difference,
to decrease sadness
and increase joy!
Love yellow! I might be tempted to join in the next series of challenges
hi Madhu,
at least we would need you for the C-story challenge:

Yellow makes me happy.
Here’s my Y entry. Thanks for giving me a reason to think about a happy day.
http://beyondpaisley.net/2012/06/19/y-challenge-a-flower-in-tours/
was amused by following your link to “Fritz the taxidermied elephant…”
Here’s mine http://jullianeford.wordpress.com/2012/06/20/wednesday-song-title-interpretation-and-a-z-archive-y-challenge-yellow/
YELLOW SUBMARINE as song title interpretation too?
Another interpretation of Coldplay’s Yellow by Sara Bareilles:
cool piano minimalism!
Mine is up!

Enjoy!
hi Jane,
yumm – gelato – jelato – yelato forever!
here is my contribution
http://nprimopiano.wordpress.com/2009/08/02/ying-yang/
hi Marina,
dog and cat exercising yin & yang positions like a kamasutra lesson: an ultimate challenge!
I’ve been doing this crazy experiment since March that fits the “Y” theme, so I had to check out the progress to use for this post:
http://www.sofacents.com/composted-yogurt-cup-stage-3/
plastic lives for ever – even on the ocean – there actually is a big Fukushima trash cloud swimming between Japan and the USA; a Canadian recently found a container from Japan with a Harley Davidson motorbike on the beach …
I have a couple of those yellow language dictionaries
love your yellow shot, great compostition frizz
here is my melange http://wp.me/p296YA-aH
your YOGA artist is so amusing!
Here is my Y entry.
http://truthaboveallreligions.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/a-z-archive-y-challenge/
I would like to swim to your yellow water lily …
Yahweh – a Y-word too …

I’ve often heard, in pirate movies,
the expression “hang him from the yardarm”
(which is the outermost tip of the yard)
hi fellow A-Zers! The Force is strong with me when it comes to this week’s Y Challenge:
http://stephenkellycreative.wordpress.com/2012/06/20/a-z-archive-y-challenge-yoda/
I’m surprised about your YODA: wonder if the monster read the little book “Hedgehog in fog”!
I like this shot because yellow is one of my happy colors… and writing keeps it flowing.
Hi happy Eliz,
describing structures of HAPPINESS from “Acceptance to Zest”: you did a great job!

beste Rosa,
maxidiehexi -
yes, yellow kaas!
makes me hungry!
groetjes!
I’m a lot earlier this week on this challenge. Thanks for holding these because they are so fun!!!

thank you, Cee, for
Yaquina Head Lighthouse and
Yaquina Bary Bridge -
and congrats for
climbing the 93 feet to the top of
Oregon’s tallest lighthouse!
Might be breaking the rules by posting more than one, but as I was writing it I noticed that my post today has a lot of yellow:
http://wp.me/p2eMHM-9t
some flowers know, that yellow is the optimal color to dress!
Hi Frizz, I LOVE your still-life of Yellow, especially the notebook and the tin box which remind me of old-fashioned writers like Ernest Hemingway! So inspired, unlike my entry this week. Anyway, here it is: http://catbirdinoman.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/a-z-archive-y-challenge-yacht/
hi catbird:
I would prefer to take a ride with that traditional Omani dhow …
Me too; more to follow on that!
Hi again Frizz, here’s another (possibly more inspired!) entry by me: http://catbirdphotography.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/a-z-archive-y-challenge-yearning/
“man yearning for money and possibly some peace of mind, the snake yearning for the music, hypnotized by some unknown dream…” (not dream, hypnotized by the movements of the instrument, I’ve heard)
P.S.:
my cat comes to listen when I’m playing guitar – that’s a surprising break because she usually is yearning to kill some mice – or rest on our warm oven to sleep …
here mine for this week
ok try this
http://pollysspace.wordpress.com/2012/06/21/a-z-archive-y/
thanks for joining with your YODA
Here is my Y entry. YELLOW: http://wp.me/p23TG1-RI
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
hi Francine,
I like your line
“You have an ironic view of life.
You can be both serious
and funny
at the same time.”
whY Cindy whY – O.K. reading from right to left (like in Israel) we have a typical Y-word:
http://cindyacarl.wordpress.com/2012/06/24/a-z-photo-challenge-why/comment-page-1/
but then cindY is an Y-word too!

Late again I’m afraid but this one was planned! Thanks for putting the challenge on – will be back with a Z very soon. Are we going around again?
http://2e0mca.wordpress.com/2012/06/27/a-z-archive-y-challenge/
yes, we’re going around again: next Tuesday story tagged with “A”
hi 2eomca / Martin,
thank you for Yaesu
“…are one of the major manufacturers of Amateur Radio transceivers…”
P.S.:
in our next A-Z turn we do not need photos – only a topic / theme / story tagged with the letter; next Tuesday we’ll start with A again …
Well I still have a Z to go
Good stuff Frizztext
Lovely photo! I love that old looking box.
Here’s mine:

your young is happy, we don’t need more, isn’t it?
With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into
any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog
has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being stolen? I’d definitely appreciate it.
